NYC fashion blogger and stylist, Ashley Sparger, posted a great story on Merah this week! Ashley knows her accessories (she use to work with the talented Kendra Scott here in Austin), so it was really exciting to see Merah mentioned on her blog.

Here's the link to the full post: http://hellohauteness.com/haute-online-boutique/

We are excited to share that Merah has teamed up with Texas jewelry designer, Micah Yancey, to bring you BonBon By Micah Yancey for Merah! Each BonBon by Micah Yancey for Merah style is assembled with our signature hypoallergenic earring hooks made from a metallic element that is 100% nickel-free without any impurities, similar to solid gold, but for a fraction of the price.

Meet Micah

 
Micah, who began designing jewelry for herself and her friends while she was in college, deeply appreciates fashion, which influences her desire for high quality, style, and design of each of the BonBon jewelry pieces. Micah’s design principles center on the idea that jewelry should be simple, clean, well-made, sophisticated and aligned with current fashion trends – all of which are exquisitely displayed through the BonBon collection.
 
She admires beautiful and unique brightly colored semi-precious gemstones and carefully hand-selects each stone for the various pieces. Many of the stones in this line look delicious enough to eat, which explains her inspiration for the name, BonBon, which means “candy” in French. The materials used in the collection include unique vintage items to add delicate detail to her designs. To stand behind her unique statement, each piece is handmade and no two pieces are exactly alike.
 
 
Here are a few styles that are available on www.ShopMerah.com. Happy Shopping!

 Due to incredibly high demand from the DailyCandy article this morning, several of our styles have sold out including "Danielle in Peach" and "Alexandria." We are working hard to replenish inventory to meet the increased demand for these styles! Please check back for updates.

Styles like “Alicia,” “Ellie” and “Jennifer” are running low, so place your orders quickly if you’ve been eyeing those earrings!

 It's an exciting day at the office - DailyCandy posted a great article on Merah this morning!! I've been a subscriber to DailyCandy for years so it's such an honor to be included in one of their articles. Looks like it will also be a busy day at the office since the style they featured  in the post sold out within minutes. We're working to get more of the "Danielle in Peach" style up just as soon as we can.

Here's the write-up!

Merah Jewelry Won't Make Your Ears Itch

Nickel-Free Earrings for a Dime

You got your mom’s long legs and dad’s fast metabolism. But your good genes didn’t exempt you from some ugly allergies.

Keep Merah in the family.

The Austin-based jewelry label is owned by Meredith Budwin, a longtime nickel allergy sufferer who also has a sixth sense for fashion.

Her earrings use only hypoallergenic hooks made from a metallic element that’s 100 percent nickel free but looks like solid gold. Browse her site for looks that are more glam than granola, including a chandelier pair loaded with emerald-inspired stones and a style with cascading sunbursts of peachy gems and faux diamonds.

The label is sensitive to shoppers’ pocketbooks as well. Everything is priced $20 to $50, including free standard shipping — and you save 15 percent on everything through July 31 with code dailycandy.

Which ensures a good reaction.
